C89:First Order Esmeralda (1)


    One more chapterter.


    Im looking forward to meeting the First Order.


    Rudger, who confirmed that the opponent appeared only as a me without showing up, had no choice but to bite his tongue inwardly.


    You dont reveal yourself, but we meet like this.


    In fact, it was not a situation that he didnt expect. A First Order will have to carefully hide its identity and not be exposed.


    Considering the way he was signaled to meet, he vaguely expected something like this.


    Yourete.


    Whatever the case, the owner of the me in front of him is a First Order. Even if he doesnt know its true identity, he shouldnt show his disappointment.


    At this moment when they face each other and talk, if he let his guard down even a little bit, the other party might be suspicious of his identity.


    Theres no such thing as regret.


    Rudger immediately washed away his misceneous thoughts. Even if they dont meet in person, there are plenty of ways to get to know the other person.


    A word that they say without any intention can be a great clue.


    [I didnt know you would be here so early]


    The answer came back in a slightly hoarse voice. Although the mes were fluttering and the voice reverberated, it was easy to tell that the subject was a woman.


    He didnt think that voice was used to deceive him.


    His opponent must be aware that he is Rudger Chelici, the First Order, and she wouldnt use such a troublesome way.


    So what did you call me for?


    Rudger said, trying to figure out the opponents intention.


    The [John Doe] that he is impersonating right now is a very relentless and merciless human being, even when ites to members from the ck Dawn Society. Hes always annoyed and angry, and even kills them if hes too annoyed.


    Nevertheless, he maintained his First Order position because he was capable and Zero Order thought highly of him but there is no guarantee that it will be the same for the others First Orders.


    Would this [John Doe] character behave as usual to the other First Orders?


    Adding unnecessary words could have made him reveal who he really is so he must be careful with whatever he says now.


    [Hmm?]


    Was Rudgers question unexpected?


    A surprised voice came from the me.


    Whats wrong?


    [Youre less angry than I thought. You used to try to tear me apart.]


    Its just a matter of time and ce. If I get angry in a ce like this, is there any advantage besides getting caught?


    [Oh. Thats definitely true, too. Youre a teacher of Theon now.]


    Im very busy right now. I dont know why you called me, but Ill go back if you have nothing more to say.


    With that said, Rudger turned his back. Of course, it is not right to leave as he has not yet fully figured out who his opponent is. However, a detailed review of the situation changes the story.


    In the first ce, it was the me in front of him, the other First Order, that asked for this meeting.


    Since the other party wants something from him he can leave without worries because the other party will try to stop him.


    [Wait.]


    Indeed, as he expected, the me stopped him. Rudger stopped walking but he didnt look back.


    Hell listen for now, but it means hes not fullymitted and the opponent didnt know that.


    [Okay. Sorry, Imte. I made an appointment first, but I offended you because I was just joking around.]


    Just get to the point.


    [Whew. Youre still hard and cold. Anyway, I called you like this because I need help.]


    Only then did Rudger look back.


    Help? You?


    [ I wouldnt normally do it, but this is Theon and I cant do things my way.]


    Do things your way. If you say that with your own mouth, , it means that what youve been doing before was pretty morous.


    You seem pretty impatient.


    [My second order disappeared recently]


    Its because of the Almighty Stone.


    [Yes, thats it. They tried to take matters into their own hands, but theypletely screwed it up!]


    Just thinking about what happened at that time made the mes stronger. The heat reached Rudger, but he kept a casual look on his face and the me, which grew bigger, returned to its original size.


    But theyre all dead.


    [Right. Who knew the president would kill them all? Its even.]


    It was a trap.


    [What? You know everything?]


    How can he not know that? If he had not left right away, he would have been swept away by the presidents magic. Of course he cant be honest about it, so hell just answer in a sloppy way.


    Theres no way I wont know.


    [As expected, of John Doe. Come to think of it, that was your role. Disguise yourself and hide in the enemys camp to win the admiration of others and steal information. Your skills didnt die.]


    Thats enough nonsense.


    At Rudgers reaction the me, which was expanding yfully, became slightly withered. Surprisingly, she is a chatterbox.


    [Anyway, I lost a subordinate that I thought was useful, so my n was disrupted. Its a n thats left to be carried out right away.]


    Because you treated such a person as a subordinate, you ended up like that.


    Rudger said, giving his opponent a hard time.


    The me remained silent because there was nothing to refute.


    [Well, Im in a different field than you. You just do things quietly on your own, but I cant do it.]


    .


    [What is that silence?] Thats why youre not popr even among our First Orders. Because I dont get along with anyone.]


    I just didnt feel the need.


    [Ha. So funny. Youre so handsome and youve always been loyal to Zero Order. Youre the only one whos good, right? Getting a lot of love from Zero?]


    Noisy. So what do you want help with?


    [Will you help me?]]


    Lets hear it first.


    At Rudgers words, the opponent seemed dissatisfied and the mes were shaking. However, from their conversation, Rudger was convinced that he was in control.


    The Second Order, who died during the Almighty Stone incident, was her subordinate, and because her immediate subordinate disappeared it caused a major setback in her future ns.


    However, it would be impossible to use another Second Order and a third order. Its not good enough.


    One thing Rudger knew for sure while ying Sedina was that the ck Dawn Society consists of seven First Orders along with the Second and Third Orders under them which naturally divides the faction inside.


    Perhaps the second order, who died trying to steal the Almighty Stone this time, is most likely her subordinate.


    Did he say his name was Demires? Even if he was a master of his own will, he must have been apetent subordinate. With such a man dead, the n she had made must bepletely nk. However, calling another Second Order will inevitably lead to hesitation because their faction is different.


    If she uses the Second Order of the opposing faction, she will show another First Order her weakness.


    I see. Thats why you asked me for help.


    Unlike other First Orders, Rudger Chelici acted alone, and he wasnt part of any faction. Those without factions were neutral.


    [You know, my specialty is setting fire but no matter how much I set fire in Theon, the wizards quickly extinguish the fire. Its an environment where I cant use my talents well.]


    Yes.


    In Theon, both teachers and students can use magic. Since the ce is full of elites any fire can be easily extinguished. Above all, there is no way that there is no way that there is no preparation for a fire in Theon, where all kinds of things happen with the use of magic.


    In particr, it should have been considered impossible to set a fire in Theon, since strict preparations were made. Nevertheless, she did not give up.


    Shes capable enough to set a fire, I guess.


    She could not have be an executive of the ck Dawn Society for no reason.


    [My role is focused on destruction but the defense here is solid. That doesnt mean I cant do anything. If you make the preparations, I can burn more brightly than anyone else]


    Are you asking me to prepare for that?


    [Id appreciate it if you did. If you help me, I will also give you the corresponding help. Its kind of a deal and a promise.]


    Whose deal is it with?


    [Of course] Its John Does deal with Esmeralda.]


    Rudger found out the name of the person who made the fire in front of him.


    I dont know if its a code name like John Doe or a real name.


    In the case of John Doe, hepletely concealed his identity and called himself by a code name, but Esmeralda likely didnt just like Victor Dreadful.


    John Doe was an unusual case, and I didnt think the rest would.


    [Hey, do you have to check like this to make your stomach feel better?]


    Its better to make a deal clear.


    Rudger said calmly so as not to be caught rejoicing.


    [I told you honestly and now its your turn to answer. Do you ept my offer?]


    I refuse.


    [What?]


    Theres nothing I can do for you in my situation.


    [Wait. Are you really going to do this after listening to everything?]


    The mes burned more strongly as if they were expressing anger but Rudger stared at the mes with a nk face and no sign of fear.


    Are you asking because you dont know my position? Im a teacher of Theon. Even if its nominal, its not an easy ce to move.


    [If youre good enough, you can do it. You always try as hard as you can to hide yourself. Its just annoying, so can you do more than make an excuse?]


    I would normally have, but not now.


    [Why?]


    The president is still suspicious of me.


    Esmeralda could not argue more and shut up when the president was mentioned.


    [You really cant? Even though its a job that would put me in debt?]


    Yes.


    [Theres nothing we can do. Then we have to pick the right person]


    When she clearly drew her line, Esmeralda took a step back, fearing that hanging on to me would hurt her self-esteem.


    [But keep this in mind. If this is sessful, it will help our ck Dawn Society a lot and you kicked the chance.]


    Everyone has their own thing to do. Just because I dont help you doesnt mean Im not loyal to the organization.


    [You talk annoyingly as well. Anyway Ill take care of it myself.]


    I was grateful that she would give up on her own. However, Esmeralda keptining because she was angry that she was rejected.


    [I was crazy to ask you for help.]


    So what are you going to do in the future?


    [Are you curious now?]


    Even though the words were so blunt, she didnt hide anything.


    [What am I supposed to do? As always, Im doing what Im good at.]


    I see. Do your best.


    There was nothing more to be gained by asking more questions. Above all, he already figured out what he can find out, so this meeting was not without benefits for him.


    When Rudger was about to say good-bye and leave.


    [Come to think of it, I heard some interesting news recently.]


    What do you mean?


    Rudger felt anxious at the sudden remark. Why was she suddenly talking about interesting news at this time?


    [You said you had a subordinate]]


    The word subordinate shed Sedina Rosen across Rudgers mind.


    [I mean, thats weird. The John Doe who imed to befortable alone, has a subordinate? A third order, too?]


    Esmeralda was suspicious and asked him.
